Good Desktop Alarm App

Since I upgraded to Vista, I haven't found a good alarm app that works as well as the one I got in the XP Plus! pack. I've tried a few sidebar gadgets, but they didn't have the right functionality and were too ugly to look at.

I'm looking for these features:

-RELIABLE (I've used some that completely rolled past the specified time)
-runs in system tray or takes up little sidebar space
-lets me quickly set up multiple reoccuring alarms (daily, weekly, monthly, certain days of the week)
-lets me name the alarms and allows me to pick an alarm sound or mp3 file
-simple interface
 
Google 'Banshee Screamer'. It's old, but fantastic, and does everything you want. I used to use it daily, not as often now, but it works fine under Vista as well.
